OS X :: Won't Work With Desktop View / Can't Find Command

Jan 25, 2010

I am familiar with CMD M combination to minimize screens. This is not doing the trick. I experience that I have to use this command several times as some programs just want minimize based on one command. It requires that one makes the programs active by clicking the cursor and than use cmd M again.

Is there yet another command that results in a an immediate desktop view.

Software :: Won't Work To View PDF Files / Can't Find Program To View

Jul 29, 2009

I have an older MBP (2.2Ghz, 2GB RAM, 120GB HD) and am having problems with PDF files. Well, I guess it would be better described as annoyances with PDF files. I use Adobe Reader and the lag when scrolling is unbearable. Does anyone know of a way to fix this? Can anyone suggest alternate programs that may remedy my problem.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Command-Drag Select In List View?

May 4, 2012

There are many things about Lion that irk the crap outta me, but this one is near the top. In ALL previous versions of Finder, one could, in list view, select a bunch of files by dragging over them, then, holding the command key down, add more non-contiguous files to the selection, again by dragging. If you try that in Lion, it starts dragging the whole lot of what you just selected to, usually, the root folder of the window you have open. 

It appears that the only way to add extra non-contiguous files to a selection is to individually click each one of them.

Software :: Find Command Gone Nuts In Word 2004 Version 11.5.6?

Jul 2, 2010

In Word 2004, when I press Cmd+F to open the "Find" window, and enter a search term, it highlights not just the first (as it has hitherto done) but ALL appearances of that term in the document, and takes me to the first one. If I then press "Enter," which would normally take me to the next occurrence of the term, it opens the footer! This strange behavior has just started

OS X :: Maven Command Mvn Doesn't Work

Sep 6, 2010

I god my MacBook Pro a couple of weeks ago, and I am very satisfied! I noticed that the Maven version is 2.2.0, and I wanted to update to 2.2.1. I tried to looked at some tutorials on how to do this, but something went wrong.

In the Terminal, if I write "mvn -v", I get "-bash: mvn: command not found". Normally, I would get some information on what version Maven is and some other things. The strange thing is that when i write "sudo mvn -v" I get what I should:

Apache Maven 2.2.1 (r801777; 2009-08-06 21:16:01+0200)
Java version: 1.6.0_20
Java home: /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6.0/Home
Default locale: nb_NO, platform encoding: MacRoman
OS name: "mac os x" version: "10.6.4" arch: "x86_64" Family: "mac"

It seems that the command "mvn" is not connected to Maven in a right way.

MacBook :: How To Wipe - Command R Won't Work

May 21, 2012

I just picked up my compute from the genius bar with a new hard drive.  When I turned it on and plugged in my external hard drive it gave me two choices of backups to use and they didn't have dates or versions, so I picked what I thought was the most recent.  I chose incorrectly and now I have the computer from my freshman year in high school.  Everyone says to hold command R at the startup but it isn't working.  Perhaps I'm just doing it wrong.  I have a regular macbook and am running Lion Version 10.7.3.

OS X :: Does The Force Quit Command Actually Work With Snow Leopard

Sep 3, 2009

Since Tiger and even more so with Leopard, I have found the 'Force Quit' command to be a pointless white elephant.

When the spinning beachball hits it tends to make the application unresponsive and then spread to all other apps. Attempting to bring up the force quit function is equally fruitless. Of course, by the time it eventually pops up, the offending application has either quit itself (I'm looking at you Adobe CS4) or has become responsive again (I'm looking at you Safari).

Has anyone noticed any improvement in Snow Leopards?

MacBook :: Clear Out Docs To View Desktop?

Feb 16, 2012

I used to have an older macbook where i could hit the f11 key and that would automatically move all the windows to the side and would let me click on a doc on my desktop.  now i have a macbook 3.1, intel core 2 duo, 2.2 GHZ, l2 cache 4 mb and it no longer has that feature.  the f11 key is reserved for the volume and i really need the volume.  i think that feature is located here on the f11 key in this photo,  

[URL]

but when i click on f11 nothing happens.  even if that feature were available it would not be an ideal solution because i really need the volume keys.  i've tried reassinging the volume keys to other keys but i can't figure out how to do it.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: View Only The Desktop With Icons And The Finder?

Mar 14, 2012

I have a hot corner set up to show the desktop.. in Snow Leopard when I exposed the desktop and then clicked on the finder in the dock *just* the finder would show. 

Now, with Lion, when I click on the finder it comes into view but all the other open applications come sweeping back in hiding the desktop. 

Can I change this back to the way it was before? Or is there another sneaky quick way to show only the desktop and the finder? Set up an entirely different "desktop" in mission control dedicated only to having nothing open in it? 

In short: I need a fast way to drag icons from the desktop into folders in the finder. Also, this is driving me nuts.

MacBook Pro :: Someone Can Be Able To View My Emails, Find My IPhone & Pictures?

Sep 6, 2009

me and my grandma are planning on getting a family pack MobileMe account to save money instead of having two accounts. She has a trial account currently, so from what I understand is tomorrow I go buy the family pack box set, set up my account (which will be the master account), cancel her account (disable synching on her iPhone before hand), add her account under account options in my account, and viola.Now here's my question:Since we will both be on the same 'family pack,' will she be able to view my emails, find my iPhone, pictures, or anything else? And vice versa.What I'm hoping is that even though they are in the same family pack, you will have to log in with each specific account (via password) to see mail, contacts, etc
